The Demon Butler Is Still Motivated Today

Chapter 41

[Host, are you serious? ]

The system put the teacup aside.

[It's just an immature idea.]

Yaxiao smiled shyly: [We can investigate the club tonight. ]

The investigation is over. If there is indeed a problem, will you find another opportunity to join the club and create some surprises

The system fell silent as it looked at the enthusiastic Yaxiao in front of it. After four hundred years of living together, it knew all of Yaxiao's little thoughts.

[Uncle, what do you think of my suggestion? ]

The system picked up the teacup it had just put down, took a sip of tea, and waved its hand, as if it was going to play with its own naughty child. [Okay, host, we will go investigate tonight.]

I just hope there is nothing wrong with this club, otherwise if the host is hurt, this old system can’t stand the shock.

With the support of his fourth uncle, Yaxiao happily returned to the building. At this time, Qin Qi's meeting had just ended, and Mist and Soran walked out of the office one after another.

"The marshal is inside." Mist said, then he remembered something and added, "The four marshals from the border base should have dinner together tonight. Did you know about this?"

"Yes, I have arranged it."

Yaxiao curled his eyes.

Mist nodded. Yaxiao was very serious about his work. Since he had already arranged for the marshal to have dinner with other marshals in the evening, there would be no mistakes and he didn't need to give any instructions.

Soran next to him was silent as usual. He nodded to Yaxiao and followed Mist away.

Yaxiao looked at the two people who hurriedly left thoughtfully, then turned and entered the meeting room.

Qin Qi sat alone in his seat, looking at the pile of documents in front of him without moving, and he did not look up when he heard the door open.

Yaxiao could see that Qin Qi's mind was not on these documents. Since coming to the central city, the villain had been meditating more and more frequently, with his brows often furrowed, as if a lot of things were weighing on him.

Yaxiao did not disturb him, but quietly absorbed the demonic value beside him. When the dinner was about to start, he leaned over and reminded him softly: "Marshal, the time agreed with Marshal Westa is almost up."

Qin Qi hummed in a hoarse voice, stood up and left the meeting room with the butler.

Because several marshals were having dinner together, Yaxiao had reserved a seat outside with Yan Chi, the marshal's steward of the Fifth Base, early in the morning, and he even went to confirm it before going to the cafe in the afternoon.

"Marshal, are you tired?"

Yaxiao thought Qin Qi must be very tired after being in meetings all afternoon. He sat in the back seat of the hovercraft, patted his legs considerately, and said, "If you are tired, you can lie on my legs and take a rest."

This is a rare gentleness from a devil.

Yasho had never done this before, and only powerful villains could get this honor.

Qin Qi turned his head slightly to look at the butler with a smile in his blue eyes, and subconsciously thought of the boy's warm body temperature. The scene of being comforted by the other party in his arms a few months ago clearly appeared in front of him, but Qin Qi did not feel tired now.

"Need not."

Qin Qi refused outright.

"All right."

Yaxiao was not disappointed. He curled his eyes, put his hands back on his knees, and waited for the hovercraft to start.

On the other side, in front of the French window on the second floor, Marshal Delbo of the First Base and Marshal Cheng Di of the Second Base were sitting together for dinner, discussing the figure that had just entered the hovercraft.

"That should be Marshal Qin, and the one next to him is his...butler?" Delpo shook the green liquid in the cup and said uncertainly.

As the marshal of the First Base, Delbo has the most amiable personality and high emotional intelligence. He is someone who can make people feel at ease during a conversation.

"should be."

Cheng Di's skin was sickly pale. He took a sip of juice. A blue protective shield attached to the surface of his skin, wrapping him tightly.

The two men's butlers stood quietly behind their employers, acting as a backdrop, ready to serve the marshals at meals at any time.

"Have you heard about Qin Qi's incident?"

Delbo placed the cup of green nutrient solution on the table, supported his chin with one hand, and looked at Cheng Di with his amorous peach blossom eyes as affectionately as if he was looking at his lover, but everyone knew that this was just an illusion.

His tone was very mysterious, as if he was bewitching the person opposite him to ask him questions.

Cheng Di had just picked up a piece of cake and was about to put it in his mouth. When he heard this, he immediately looked at Delbo warily, "What's the matter?"

The smile on Delbo's face deepened. He was about to speak, but before he could utter the first word, the man opposite him, who was tightly wrapped in the protective shield, turned pale in an instant.

"no no!"

The fork made a sharp, sharp sound when it landed on the plate.

Cheng Di curled up on the stool and covered his ears, screaming in fear: "You'd better not say anything. If you want to live, you can't know too much. You can't tell me anything!"

Delbo laughed a few times, "Cheng Di, I haven't seen you for so long, you are still so cute."

Cheng Di didn't say anything.

He was still immersed in the fear of death, covering his ears and muttering something in his mind.

His timid and life-threatening appearance does not have the toughness that a marshal should have.

Delbo and the two butlers in the room were not surprised at all, as if they had already gotten used to his condition.

After a while, the smile in Delbo's eyes faded a little, and he continued to reveal: "At the Fifth Base Border Meeting, Qin Qi and his men caught a group of assassins, and those assassins were targeting Qin Qi."

"What?!"

Cheng Di's eyes widened in shock, and then he realized that his hands covering his ears were of no use at all!

This is bad. He has heard something he shouldn't have heard. Will he be killed by an assassin today? !

"Why are you telling me this? What if I'm targeted by a gang of assassins?" Cheng Di was restless.

"No, this matter has already been spread among those who should know, so it's not a secret."

Delpo shrugged, "Besides, that group of assassins can't be anything powerful. They are just ordinary people with little fighting power. I'm just curious now. Why did they want to assassinate Qin Qi? Aren't you curious?"

It would be a lie for Cheng Di to say that he was not curious, but he knew even better that curiosity killed the cat. Qin Qi, such a powerful marshal, was assassinated. Obviously there was a conspiracy behind it, which was something that a timid and weak ordinary person like him could not deal with.

The more Cheng Di thought about it, the colder he felt behind him. He lost the mood to eat. He loosened his hands that were covering his ears and warned, "If you say these things again, I'll leave now."

"You're really cute."

Delbo couldn't help laughing a few times when he saw Cheng Di's expression, and then said, "I won't say anything more, okay?"

He raised his left hand and tapped the rim of the glass lightly. The glass made a crisp sound and then changed the subject: "Marshal Gwen will be here soon."

Gervin, the marshal of the third base, is also the backbone of the three second-tier bases.

"This is good news."

Cheng Di was relieved when he heard that Delbo really didn't mention the previous incident again. However, a few seconds later, Delbo mentioned another thing:

"Did you know that Marshal Qin's brother came here with Marshal Ge Wen? I heard that Marshal Qin beat his brother badly, and I don't know what happened between them."

Cheng Di: …Why are you so gossipy

If Cheng Di had been able to defeat Delbo, he would have sealed Delbo's mouth by now.

"Although Qin's younger brother is young, he knows a lot. I will have to talk to him about Qin Qi, the taciturn man, and maybe I can learn a lot of interesting things from him."

Ah, shut up, Delpo, Gervin, help me! I want to live well!

On the other side, Yaxiao and Qin Qi had no idea that two marshals had discussed so much in private. After arriving at the agreed hotel, the two, accompanied by the waiter, went straight to the top floor of the hotel.

They did not set out early, and Yaxiao originally thought they were the last to arrive. However, when they arrived at the private room, only Marshal Lu Chuanxi from the Eighth Base was there, and the other two marshals had not arrived yet.

Qin Qi arrived relatively early.

Yaxiao pulled out a chair for Qin Qi, and after he sat down, he poured him a cup of coffee.

Lu Chuanxi sat opposite and watched Qin Qi and the housekeeper getting along, his eyes looking like he was studying something.

This scene is so strange.

In previous years, Qin Qi would also bring his butler to the spring meeting, but he would never be so close to the butler. The butler would only stand one meter away from Qin Qi, motionless like a background board.

But now it is obvious that Qin Qi trusts this black-haired boy very much.

Marshal Lu Chuanxi of the Eighth Base is a researcher who stays in the laboratory every day. He is more curious than the average person, but he knows his limits. After taking a few glances, he retracted his gaze and signaled his butler Gaibu with his eyes.

Gabe nodded, walked to Qin Qi and handed him the document in his hand.

"This is the analysis report on the breeding period of the black bone worm that my laboratory found. But why didn't you let me give it to you at today's meeting? It's not convenient for Wistar and Wenbol to know?"

Lu Chuanxi looked a little confused.

"Um."

Qin Qi put the information away and replied calmly without explaining the reason.

Lu Chuanxi was tactful and said no more. If Westa and Wenbol also wanted the information, he could give it to them directly.

Qin Qi's purpose of taking this information now may be to conduct research in advance in order to find a way to completely kill the black bone worm. After all, the recent abnormalities of the black bone worm are indeed alarming.

"But Qin Qi, you don't need to worry too much. According to my analysis, the situation of the black bone worm will not last too long."

"The samples for the study were taken from the black bone worms near our four bases. There is no difference in the values. If you don't understand any value, just ask me directly."

Lu Chuanxi has always been a man of few words, but when it comes to research-related matters, it's like he's turned on a switch.

Qin Qi listened quietly and did not stop him.

Yaxiao behind him didn't react much when he heard the three words "black bone worm", but after a moment he remembered that after the spring meeting, the four border bases all suffered from the insect tide crisis.

Yaxiao recalled the plot carefully.

After the Zerg attack, the Sixth Base was relatively safe, but the Eighth Base, which had always been the safest border base and suffered the least from the Zerg invasion, became the main target of the Zerg attack.

Marshal Lu Chuanxi of the Eighth Base died heroically on the front line in order to protect the base, and this was just the beginning of the disaster for the Eighth Base.

I don’t know whether the changes in the black bone worms this time are related to the insect tide.

Yaxiao was a little distracted, but soon he stopped thinking about it. As long as the unfamiliar human sacrifices did not affect the demon's absorption of demon value, he didn't need to worry about it!

Fighting and killing, living in the demon world shrouded in death, Yaxiao has long been accustomed to it.

The tip of Yaxiao's tail drooped down, and he stood beside Qin Qi without looking away. At this moment, the other two marshals also arrived late. Before they entered the door, they could hear the sound of the two of them arguing with each other outside.

"Hey, isn't this Marshal Wenbol, the most punctual among our border bases? How come you are here on time today?" A mocking voice sounded.

"Marshal Wistar, please take care of yourself first."

Even if the person hasn't come in yet, one can imagine the fake smile on the face of the person speaking.

Qin Qi and Lu Chuanxi both had expressions of being accustomed to it. After the four marshals arrived, Yaxiao and several other housekeepers withdrew so as not to disturb them while they were eating.

The butlers, who maintained their elegance and decorum in front of their employers, were obviously much more relaxed after leaving the room.

"Yaxiao, have you met with the two butler representatives?" asked the butler Burton with a silver backcombed hair. As a former butler representative, he cared a lot about the relationship between Yaxiao and the two butler representatives.

"Yes."

Yaxiao replied obediently.

"Chen Chen is cold-hearted and hard-hearted, while Ariel appears gentle but is decisive. Neither of them is easy to deal with."

This was the young butler's first time attending a representative conference. Burton wanted to prevent Yaxiao from feeling too much pressure, but he was not a soft-hearted person and his words were harsh.

Yan Chi rarely laughed at Burton, but smiled at Yaxiao, "In the first fifteen days of the spring meeting, we housekeepers only have two things to do. One is to take good care of our employers and let them attend the meeting comfortably every day."

"The other is the Butler Representative Conference to be held the day after tomorrow. Don't worry, we are all behind you. Feel free to contact us if you have any questions."

Gabe next to him also kept nodding.

Yaxiao could feel the concern of these three butlers for him. He curled his eyes and inexplicably felt that these three people were on the same side with him.

This feeling of having a companion was strange, but Yaxiao didn't hate it.

The party ended quickly.

The marshals had already held a meeting in the afternoon.

This meal was more for the purpose of bonding. Of course, since there was no affection between them, after the meal, the marshals had no intention of enjoying a wonderful night together, and each got on a hovercraft and left.

Westar actually wanted to chat more with his good brother Qin Qi, but he was busy knitting a scarf and was in a hurry to get back, so he said a few words and slipped away.

Qin Qi didn't care either.

Yaxiao sat next to him, looking at the night view outside the car window, recalling the reactions of Burton and the other two, and a smile appeared unconsciously on the corners of his mouth.

"Very happy?"

Qin Qi rubbed his eyeballs with his hands, leaning back in his chair. Although his eyes were closed, he seemed to be able to sense Yaxiao's thoughts.

"Yes, the Marshal should be very happy too."

Yaxiao curled his eyes. He could feel that Qin Qi liked getting along with the other three marshals, although sometimes the four of them did not get along as harmoniously as good friends in the traditional sense of ordinary humans.

Qin Qi did not deny Yaxiao's words.

The atmosphere inside the hovercraft was inexplicably filled with warmth, as if time had slowed down.

The hovercraft slowly stopped.

Yaxiao followed Qin Qi closely, but after a few steps, the man in front of him paused slightly, and then continued to walk towards the door of the building.

Yaxiao seemed to sense something and looked to the side not far away.

There were three young men standing there.

They obviously didn't expect to run into Qin Qi here suddenly. The three of them looked a little strange. The tallest black-haired man had his body tense, as if he was suppressing something.

It’s my younger brother.

Why are the protagonists here

Yaxiao suddenly remembered that the protagonists had a good relationship with the son of the marshal of the third base. Now they came here to meet that young master, right

"marshal?"

Yaxiao took a few quick steps and lowered his voice, carefully observing Qin Qi's expression. Usually he could still see some emotions on the man's face, but now he couldn't see any at all.

"What's wrong

Qin Qi's expression was calm, as if the encounter just now did not leave any trace in his heart.

Yaxiao noticed that the TH value on Qin Qi's watch screen did not fluctuate. He thought about it and shook his head: "It's okay."

If there is nothing abnormal about the villain, then there is no need for me to say anything more, right

At the same time, Wei Shi did not expect that they would meet Marshal Qin by chance. What surprised him even more was that Marshal Qin just glanced at them and left with the butler without any reaction.

Wei Shi noticed that Qin Chen's body suddenly tensed up, frowned in worry, then raised his hand and stroked his back, "Don't be nervous, Marshal Qin is gone."

Qin Chen's wound ached slightly. The scene of the other party brutally pressing him against the wall when he lost control long ago was still vivid in his mind. He licked his dry lips and hummed.

"Gert sent me a message. He has just reported to Marshal Gerwin and will be coming down soon."

Wei Shi deliberately changed the subject, not wanting Qin Chen to be too immersed in his emotions towards Marshal Qin, but this also reminded him of something.

Wei Shi looked at Qin Chen and his younger brother A Xing, and his tone became more serious: "Gert is the son of the marshal of the third base, and he is also the only one we can contact with the upper echelons of officers at this stage. We have to find clues and we must maintain this relationship!"

"Got it, boss!"

Ah Xing, with a Band-Aid on his face, raised his hand actively.

Qin Chen's senses were also drawn back. He looked down at Wei Shi and nodded seriously.

After accompanying the villain back to the room, Yaxiao was still very concerned about Qin Qi's emotions. However, Qin Qi's performance remained the same, as if he was really not affected. Yaxiao let down his guard a little, and when it was time for Qin Qi to go to bed, he left the room.

[Fourth Uncle, how is Sheng Cheng doing? ]

[Sheng Cheng has already gone to the club and wants to join it.] The system responded quickly.

Yaxiao looked down at the time, thought for a moment, locked the door of his room, and asked his fourth uncle to help guard the door for him.

[Host, what are you going to do now? ]

The system asked doubtfully.

Yaxiao's blue eyes were filled with a smile. He stretched out his tone and said happily, "Of course I'm going to see Sheng Cheng."

The nightclubs in the central city are generally based on revelry, but one must have sufficient wealth to pay membership fees to join the Dark Night Club, which is more upscale and grand than other clubs.

Sheng Cheng was wearing a white suit with a bunch of gorgeous roses in his pocket. With his pale skin and rosy lips, he really looked like a rich man at first glance.

He looked at the magnificent club sign, his brows showing a gloomy look. This was the club that his master asked him to join.

Sheng Cheng suppressed all the emotions in his heart, put on an elegant posture, and was about to step into the club, but the next second he was accidentally bumped into by someone.

"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to do that."

The young man's voice was clear and full of sincere apology.

Sheng Cheng's heart skipped a beat when he heard this.

My spine instantly felt goosebumps. Why did this tone sound so familiar? But the two people's voices were obviously different.

He looked up subconsciously and saw a young man with scorpion braids.

The young man was taller than the man in his mind and looked more mature. Although their eyes were both blue, there was an inexplicable temptation at the corners of this man's eyes and his pupils were more amorous.

Phew, not alone.

Sheng Cheng was relieved instantly. Just as he was about to wave goodbye and leave, he heard the man ask, "Are you here to join the club too?"

"If so, we can do it together."

The man's tone was particularly sincere.

Sheng Cheng looked at the smile on his face and suddenly had a bad feeling and shuddered for no reason.
